Lucas already knew what Justin wanted him for.
But still, there was something unexpected. Soon Lucas returned to the Thomas villa to see Justin. He frowned after hearing what Justin had said. "Are you saying that I should marry Jessica again?" Justin glared at Lucas. "What? Don't tell me you are thinking about marrying Luna!" Lucas didn't want to marry Luna. But he didn't think marrying Jessica was an option. "As for whom I will marry, let's talk about it later. But remarrying Jessica is out of the question." Justin was dissatisfied when he heard that. Justin snorted and said, "What do you mean by out of the question? Jessica likes you. Just coax her and apologize to her. Oh, by the way, tell Olivia to apologize again. Be sincere and try a few more times." Lucas did not speak while Justin was still enthusiastic about telling Lucas how to persuade Jessica. Yet Lucas didn't make a beep no matter what Justin said.Jessica originally wanted to wait for the latest bidding plan before lunch. But what came faster than the bidding plan was Terry's phone call. Thinking of what happened yesterday, Jessica looked at the vibrating phone in front of her. After a while, she answered, "It's me, Jessica." "I'm downstairs at the Hall Group. Shall we have lunch together?" Terry knew Jessica too well. Normally, Jessica would not agree. Yet Jessica once troubled Terry when she fell ill the other day. Thus, she couldn't turn Terry down. Jessica glanced at Wendy who came in and said to Terry, "I'll go downstairs in five minutes." After that, Jessica hung up the phone and looked at Wendy. "Is the plan done?" Wendy shook her head. "The planning manager said it would be done at two o'clock." Jessica picked up the coat on the chair behind her. "I see. Before I came back, put the plan on my desk." "Yes, Miss Hall." Jessica nodded.
The courtyard was empty. The two of them spoke in a hearable voice. Lucas leaned against the carriage and heard their conversation. The two waitresses became more and more excited as they spoke. Lucas stood there and his hand moved slightly. Lucas' golden eyes darkened and he snuffed out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. He stepped out of the carriage and walked directly to the corridor. "Someone's there!" Hearing the footsteps, the two waitresses were startled. When they turned around and saw that it was Lucas, they felt even more guilty. They quickly pushed the cart to the side and left with their heads lowered. Lucas looked at the backs of the two and thought of what the two had said just now. He felt a sting in his heart. It was only now that Lucas remembered that when he sent Luna to the hospital the day before yesterday, Terry was carrying Jessica out of the hospital. Although Lucas only tossed a glance at Jessic
Jessica felt there was no need for her to greet Lucas. She didn't hate Lucas now, but it was impossible for her not to resent him a little. She thought she had already done a great job to restrain herself from turning a blind eye to him. Jessica felt that she was polite to Lucas. But this was only her thought, and it did not mean Lucas was thinking the same way. Looking at Lucas, who was walking towards her step by step, Jessica subconsciously frowned. "Mr. Thomas, you'd better not come over. I don't want to hear anything about the love and hate relationship between you and me." When Jessica said this, there was no smile on her face. Only coldness dominated her eyes. When Lucas looked over, he even saw a hint of impatience flashing through Jessica's eyes. Jessica's gaze instantly tore a hole in his heart. In an instant, all of his suppressed emotions burst out. "Are you in love with Terry now?" Jessica looked at him, f
Jessica was stunned. In the next second, she was pulled into Terry's arms. She was instantly overwhelmed by Terry's body smell. Jessica raised her head and looked at him. "He's just too cruel, Terry." When Jessica said this, she gritted her teeth and trembled a lot. Looking at her trembling eyelashes, Terry raised his hand to press the back of her head into his arms. "Then you can feel safe with me. My heart is soft. If you don't believe me, you can get into it and take a look." Jessica was in Terry's arms. Her face pressed so close against his chest that she could even hear his steady heartbeat. Jessica gradually calmed down. After Jessica came to her senses, she pushed Terry away. "Thank you." "If you want to thank me..." Terry curled his lips and didn't finish his sentence. Jessica tilted her head to look at him. "How about treating you to a meal next time, Mr. Davison?" Jessica smiled again. "I have a meeting this
After Justin finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Dwayne. Dwayne placed the card he had prepared on the table. Justin looked at Trissy and said, "You are a smart girl. Here is ten million dollars, enough for your sister to live for a while. Be sensible. Take the money and you are still the recognized daughter—in—law of the Thomas family." Justin stood up and left after he finished speaking. Justin came and left quickly. In less than five minutes, the two sisters, Luna and Trissy, were left alone in the ward. "Trissy, what should we do now?" Trissy's mind was also a mess. She looked at the card on the table. Ten million dollars was just a drop in the bucket for the Thomas family. The old bastard Justin wanted to drive the Cheek sisters away, but he was reluctant to pay. However, Trissy also knew that it would be even harder for Luna to marry into the Thomas family now. Justin's last line was also vi
When Jessica arrived at LURE, it was only eight o'clock in the evening. There were not many people in the bar, but the music was too loud. Jessica frowned the moment she entered. Hannah was sitting and waving to Jessica from afar when she saw her. "Jess, come here!" Jessica looked back at Terry. "Mr. Davison, why don't you play by yourself?" Terry peered at her. "Do you treat me as your driver? How could you send me away when I'm no longer useful?" Jessica smiled. "I'm just afraid that you'll be bored with me." As soon as she finished speaking, Terry suddenly leaned over almost to her ear. "How could that be possible? Miss Hall is my target only." Though the music was loud, Jessica heard Terry's every word. Jessica didn't reply and walked toward Hannah. Hannah gave Terry an unfathomable glance when she saw him. "What a coincidence. Mr. David, you're here too." Terry smiled casually. "It's not a coincidence. I'm here wi
Hari remembered that the story was about how a girl loved a boy, but it was a crush, so the male protagonist didn't know he was loved by a girl. When he met Lucas this afternoon, he happened to see the picture in his car and remembered the story in this magazine instantly. When Hari came across Hannah in the afternoon, the idea popped into his mind. He wanted to judge through Jessica's reaction whether the author of the story, Cynthia, was Jessica. After Jessica got into the car, she glanced at Terry and asked, "Is Mr. Davison very curious?" Terry smiled, "What does he feel curious about?" "Who is that Cynthia? And whether I'm Cynthia." As they were talking, the traffic light turned red. Terry stopped the car slowly and turned his head to look at Jessica. "Is it important to you?" Jessica didn't expect his question. Suddenly, she smiled. "It's not important." As soon as she finished speaking, Terry said again. "I'm more curious about wh
Hari couldn't finish speaking, Lucas hung up on him, so he had just driven the car to Lucas' apartment. Hari couldn't get it over, so he directly drove over here to find Lucas. Of course, Hari went back home first to bring the magazine with him. He planned to directly compare the magazine with the painting in Lucas' hand. Hari walked straight out of the elevator and knocked on Lucas' door. Hearing the knock, Lucas walked over with a cold face and opened the door. "Are you free?" When Hari heard this, he was unhappy. "If you hadn't suddenly hung up on me, I wouldn't have come here to bother you in the middle of the night!" Lucas sneered, "What's it?" Hari glanced inside the room and wanted to enter, but Lucas had no intention of letting him in. "What could be the harm if you let me in?" Lucas looked at him without moving his eyes. "I don't welcome you." "I..." Hari decided not to argue with Luca. "H
